Chapter 1045: Completely Unrelated
e list was directly slit in the throat while carousing at a kabuki theatre. The kabuki actor fainted beside the officer and, upon waking up, saw the customer lying in a pool of blood. Her scream drew...Yu Meifeng finally compromised. She also realized that there was now a gap between her and her child, and with the added pressure from her formidable mother-in-law, she ultimately chose to prioritize her own interests.
The Song family watched as Yu Meifeng signed her name and finished, one person kept a copy. Only then did Lian Yi say to Song Qichuan:
"Zi, tomorrow you take our household registration book and move Meifeng's information out. Also put this abandonment notice in our family file. This way, if anything happens later, we have proof."
After Liàn Yī finished speaking, she turned her head and said to Yu Měi Fèng:
"It's too late today, let's go to the police station early tomorrow morning to transfer your household registration. After all, this is related to your food ration issue. You should also inform your family if you want to transfer your household registration back to your hometown."
"After you've finished registering your household, come directly to the bank and find me. I haven't kept the money at home; it's all in the bank. I'll transfer it to you from the bank, so there's a record of it, which is good for both of us."
Okay, I understand.
Yu Mei Feng pursed her lips but didn't retort. She also understood that her mother-in-law wanted to sever ties with her as soon as possible and didn't want her to have any connection with the Song family anymore. This suited her just fine, so in the end, she nodded, took the signed document, and left first.
Back at her parents' home, Yu Meifeng was called to her mother's bedroom by her own mother as soon as she stepped through the door. Her mother inquired about the negotiations with the Song family in detail and, after reviewing the signed documents, sighed softly:
"Daughter, this old woman from the Song family wants to completely cut ties with you and prevent any further entanglement between your families."
"Mom, what I'm doing is just a temporary measure. Da Bao is flesh and blood of mine. He's still young, so if I pay more attention to him, his heart will definitely lean towards me. My son needs to recognize me, even the old woman can't stop it."
Yu Meifeng had thought out a countermeasure when she signed the agreement, which is why she signed so readily. She just didn't know if her plan would work this time.
"Alright, just be clear with yourself then."
Early the next morning, Yu Meifeng took her household register and went to the police station early to wait.
Song Qingchuan, following his mother's instructions, took the family's household register and left home early that morning.
The Song family is still quite traditional. Although both sons are married, they haven't separated. Firstly, there is only the elderly mother left in the house. Secondly, there are two unmarried individuals still living there. Most importantly, after having children, adults have to work, and childcare falls entirely on the original owner.
The most important issue is housing. The unit can't currently solve the housing problems for all employees, so the Song family essentially lives together in three generations, sharing the old Song family house.
Nine members of the family lived together, and there was no division of households. Only after marriage, the household registrations of Yu Meifeng and Li Juan were transferred to the Song family's large household register. After all, this related to the distribution of rations.
Now that Song Qingshan died unexpectedly in a car accident, Yu Meifeng is preparing to remarry, so she's handling the process of deregistering and re-registering her household.
The police officers at the station were familiar with the Song family's situation, so the procedures went smoothly. When Yu Mei-feng followed Song Qingchuan to the only bank in Qingshan Town, she saw her mother-in-law and younger brother-in-law, Song Qinghai, waiting at the door.
"Mom, did you wait for a while"
Song Qingchuan went up to ask.
"After waiting for a while, Xia Hai and I figured it was time to leave. "Have all the household registration matters been handled"
"Mom, don't worry, it's all done."
"Okay, I'll transfer the money to Meifeng right away."
Ripple said cheerfully.
Yu Mei-feng also let out a sigh of relief after hearing this.
Four people entered the bank. Lian Yi went straight to handle a wire transfer and transferred the money on the spot to Yu Meifeng.
Yu Meifeng looked at the extra three thousand yuan in her account and felt a surge of happiness. Then, under Lianri's request, she wrote down a receipt for the three thousand yuan compensation before leaving the bank.
"Meifeng, once you leave this bank, you and our Song family will have nothing to do with each other. As your mother-in-law, I'll give you one last piece of advice, as a final favor to you and my son's marriage."
Ripples looked at Yu Meifeng and said.
"Mom, you said it yourself, I'm listening. You wouldn't hurt me, would you"
Yu Meifeng said meekly, the money was in hand, and even if she was scolded by the old woman, she accepted it.
Mei Feng, money is a good thing, and sometimes it can help you, and sometimes it can harm you.
I just want to remind you, parents are not as good as their own children. I won't go around bragging about how much money I gave you, but you better keep your mouth shut and don't let people with bad intentions notice.
After Lian Yi finished speaking, she didn't wait for Yu Mei Feng to respond and turned around with her two sons.
Yu Mei-feng looked at her mother-in-law's departing figure, her eyes flickering for a long time. Finally, she turned and walked into the bank.
After handling Yu Meifeng's affairs, Lian Yi felt a weight lifted from her heart. She excused herself, saying she was tired, and went back to her room for a nap. After waking up, she prepared dinner and watched as Da Bao ate. She then watched her granddaughter Beibei before sending Li Juan and Qing Mei to the bathhouse for a relaxing soak. Finally, she shared today's events with her family.
Although Li Juan and Qingmei didn't go, they are still part of the family. There are some things that definitely need to be told to them, after all, what her husband and brother said isn't as formal as what she, as the head of the family, says.
Li Juan and Qing Mei both felt that their mothers-in-law had done the right thing. They handled things openly and honestly, even if it meant scheming against someone, they did it in a way that was transparent.
"Don't think that giving three thousand yuan to Yu Meifeng means our family will struggle. In fact, before your dad passed away, the family had saved some money, which was intended for Qingmei and Qinghai's education and future marriages."
Besides, your three uncles are in Luojiazhuang. We can exchange for vegetables, grains and poultry on the farm without tickets, so we've definitely saved a lot of money.”
My brothers all nodded in agreement. The three uncles from Luo Family Village were really good to them. When they were young, every summer vacation, they would go to the village to stay for a while. Hiking up mountains, going down to the river, climbing trees and looking for bird nests, catching cicada bugs – those were their happiest times.
During the autumn harvest every year, Uncle Luo from Luojiacun would send a cartload of food over. Although there was more coarse grain than fine grain, it still helped their whole family, at least their three sons could eat at least six points full.
When pigs were slaughtered in the village every year, they could still go over for a meal of slaughterhouse dishes. On their way home, their mother would buy two thigh bones, although there wasn't even a sliver of meat on them. But the bone broth simmered into it, with a few pieces of potato and some scallions, was so fragrant that the smell alone warmed you up, and drinking it filled your whole body with warmth. Thinking back now, their childhood was much better than most kids'.
"Mom, we remember how good our uncles have always been to us. This time when our elder brother had an accident, the uncles were afraid you would be heartbroken and sad. They took charge of the funeral arrangements, running around and directing us."
Song Qingchuan sighed and said.
So, don't get upset and think that without these three thousand dollars, we can't make ends meet.
